By the time Dream and her friends got halfway there, Dream's paws ached. "Can't we stop for just a moment?" she asked. Flash turned his gaze to her, and she was captivated. "Not yet," he mewed. "We must reach the cave soon."

Once he turned back, a pair of green eyes burned in her head, and a voice went through it. You will unlock secrets here. Dream froze and glanced at the others. "Did you hear that?" she asked. Silver glanced at her with concern. "Hear what?"

No, they didn't, Dream thought. Just then, a huge stone loomed infront of them, and Dream's mouth gaped open. "Where are we?" she asked. Flash gave her a warm glance. "We're at the cave," he purred.

Dream stared around the cave. It was huge, and had jagged rocks pointing out everywhere. A dim blue light shone, turning their pelts silver. In the center was a small pool of water. Glancing into it, she saw herself. Stars glittered on and around her.

"Wow," she breathed. Flame appeared behind her. "Coming?" he asked, and she followed him to a rock jutting out of the cold, stone floor. Flash stared at it, looking for something. She didn't bother to ask him what for, but shivered.

"Jinx," she murmured to the tortoiseshell. "Is it always cold in here?" Jinx shook her head. "It's never cold, why do you ask?" Never cold! Dream wanted to cry, But I'm freezing my tail off! "Here it is," Flash mewed. Dream looked at what he was nosing. Under the rock was a little hole.

Before she could stop him, Flash dissapeared into it. The others followed him, so she did as well. Inside was a cavern. There was water flowing down the walls and going into a dark part of the cavern. In the middle was a platform, with a cat laying on it.

"Flash," the cat croaked. It was a she-cat, elderly by the sound of it. "Is that you and the others?" Flash nodded. "Yes, Emerald. It's us." They all jumped next to the cat. She had hypnotizing green eyes and midnight black fur. The only other color on her was a little white on her chin.

"Ahh," she purred as she saw Dream. "Welcome, young seeker." Seeker? Dream was confused. She had only heard that term when Jinx muttered it under her breath. "You have returned."

"But, what's a seeker?" Dream asked. Emerald gave Flash a look with dark eyes. "You haven't told her?" she asked. Flash dipped his head. "No," he mewed. "I feared it wasn't the right time." Emerald flicked her tail to an opening leading outside.

"Tell her," she ordered. Flash got up and motioned with his tail for her to follow, and she did. When they got to a ridge, her heart pounded when she saw a full moon shining ahead. Tonightr would be the gathering, and she was missing it.

Does my clan miss me? she wondered. Flickerpaw probably didn't, but did the rest? "Dream," Flash called from where he sat. "Come join me."

She padded over and sat down. This all seemed familliar, and she knew why. This was from her vision. "You know. Dream, I must confess something." he mewed. "I was once from a clan. Your clan." Dream opened her eyes wide.

"What happened?" she asked. "My father. I could read minds then too, and I knew he was planning something. I told the leader, but she didn't believe me. I tried to stop him myself, but he ran to the leader and said I tried to kill him. I was banished."

Dream gasped. So this was what he had meant to say? She wanted to press herself against him, but didn't know if she should. "I know what your thinking," he mewed, making her jump. "And I must say something else."

"Well?" she prompted. "The truth is," he began, "I kinda love you."

Yay! Dream and Flash are now a couple. But what is a seeker? find out soon!! :)
